Last year, I overspent for everyone for Christmas......Over $2,100.00 for all those gifts. I have been tracking my Christmas spending for the past three years. However, that number spent last year (in 2009) was LOWER than the year before ( in 2008)......Okay, someone hit me over the head, please!!!
This year, I made myself a promise that I would not overspend - I tried to keep on a budget and since I try to follow Dave Ramsey to the best of my ability, I was going to succeed......
Everything has been tallied and I am down more than $700.00 this year as compared to last year!!
I love budgets and I love numbers and I love knowing that there will be no credit card bills in January!!!
Praise the Lord for this one!!!!
